    Seasons of Sacrifice

    There’s nothing like crossing over into the second half of the year to trigger you to take action on those big projects in your business. I am supporting a number of women to bring some massive goals to life this quarter and a common conundrum is “How am I going to fit this in among all the other competing priorities in my life?” In a perfect world, everything would slot in beautifully but in reality, life needs some serious adjustment in order to give these projects the required energy and focus to achieve the outcomes you want. I call these Seasons of Sacrifice. This is a break from normal programming - it doesn’t last forever but there is always a reason for the season. Sometimes we consciously choose the season, other times the season is forced upon us. Whatever the reason, I have some tips to get you through it and out the other side and I’m sharing them with you in this episode.

    Energy Optimisation with Vanessa Bennett

    My guest on this episode is Vanessa Bennett, CEO and co-founder of Next Evolution Performance - an organisation that uses neuroscience to help driven business leaders and teams to optimise productivity, energy and profitability without the burnout. Like Vanessa and her team, I do not believe that success needs to equal burn out. Sadly, I see many broken women limp into my world who have nothing left in the tank after doing everything themselves. Vanessa works with leaders of businesses of all shapes and sizes every day and she is sharing the goods with us in our chat. Not only does she have the intel and the insights, she has solutions for us to better manage our energy to avoid burnout. We talk about just how much cognitive energy we have per day (and spoiler alert - it’s not anywhere near as much as you think). Vanessa shares how we can manage and, most importantly, optimise our energy and how crucial automation, delegation and simplification are for this. Vanessa’s insights are going to help shift your focus from how much you do and for how long to improving your output and lowering workload.
